Is it expensive to polish a concrete floor?

• <div><p>Polishing a concrete floor isn’t as expensive as it sounds—it’s actually one of the more budget-friendly upscale flooring options out there. On average, it costs <b>$4,500</b>, with most projects falling between <b>$1,000 </b>and <b>$8,000</b> . When you’re working with an existing slab of concrete, you skip material costs entirely, so it’s even more affordable. If you want a glossy, durable floor without paying hardwood or tile prices, polished concrete delivers serious shine without the sticker shock.</p></div>

Q: Can I do my own concrete stamping?

• <div><p>It&rsquo;s possible to pour your own concrete slab and stamp it yourself, but we don&rsquo;t recommend it. Pouring concrete is a relatively simple operation, but for larger projects, you&rsquo;ll have to pay for concrete delivery anyway. From there, you&rsquo;ll need to make sure you get the proper thickness to avoid cracking and sinking, and then you&rsquo;ll need to work quickly to get the pattern stamped on the surface at the right time&mdash;too early, and the pattern may settle back down, but too late, and it won&rsquo;t set at all. Leave the work to a concrete professional for the best results.</p></div>

Q: What color should I paint my house foundation?

• <div><p>It&rsquo;s best practice to paint your house foundation a neutral color that will match well with the home, look nice on a seasonal basis, and be attractive to future homebuyers. However, if a more eccentric color is what complements the home as a whole there&rsquo;s no reason not to take that approach.</p></div>

Q: Do you need to sand concrete before painting?

• <div><p>You should sand concrete before painting, as it helps remove any irregularities and pieces that stick out from the surface. This not only helps the paint look better but it prevents any unwanted water absorption.</p></div>

Q: Do cinder blocks need to be primed before painting?

• <div><p>Yes, cinder blocks must be primed before painting. Without primer, your paint won't stick to the surface of the blocks. You should use a bonding and filling primer which fills all of the small pores of your blocks. Once the primer dries, you'll have a smoother surface to work with and your paint will stick easily to the blocks.</p></div>

These young men mean business! Not only did they give me a good price but they left with me feeling like I had a new slab of concrete put down. I will most definitely be hiring them again

These guys are real professionals. The product is high quality, and the installers were great. They finished the entire house and basement in one day. And they cleaned up after each window.

We've got Brazilian cherry floors that had been finished with a dark gloss. Gordon and his crew took extra care to remove all of the old finish, provide a natural satin finish and cleanup afterwards. We're delighted with the job and would recommend Gordon highly.

"Jas" came out and gave me a bid for a retaining wall by a deck. Gave me options for rock, paver, and concrete. We chose rock for aesthetics and price. He came back about 3 weeks later on a particularly soggy November day. He and his workman worked all day long building the retaining wall....

Smooth as glass. The owner, his wife and one of his sons came by the same day that I called, appraised the work to be done, took a deposit, put the sofa in their truck and promised it would be repaired and returned within a week. It was finished and returned in three days.

Kept my dog all day, which seemed too long. He's very furry, so maybe he took a long time to dry. I had to call them at the end of the day to find out if he was ready for pickup. He was in a cage when I arrived, which upset both of us, as I would have preferred to be there & wait for him to be...
